Lamy's classic pen with an elongated body in a black plastic is designed for calligraphy. This pen features an ergonomic grip section and spring-loaded brass wire clip.
We recommend a 1.1mm, 1.5mm, or 1.9mm italic nib, but can be easily interchanged with any Lamy nib.
I own several, mostly because now my husband has gotten the bug for fountain pens, and we both enjoy shimmer inks and Lamy can take shimmer easily in broad or stub nibs. I use car... view moretridges, and usually have my workhorse pen with De Atramentis Document Black ink for sketching and writing, and the cap keeps the nib moist so that I can leave it for a couple days and not worry about ink drying up. My fist one died after constant use for five years... dropped! I also love how easy it is to swap nibs if I am traveling -- one pen, and I will take a fine and stub so that I can decide which I want when sketching. view less
